PWAs are great. Half the apps in app stores are just packaged browsers, we should take away the need for that bloat…using the engine of your choice would be a bonus. Plus they create the option of skipping app stores entirely, which is another step away from the Google/Apple oligopoly.
When the options are “install” as a PWA or download a bloated Electron app, I’m going with the PWA. Every time. :shrug: It would just be nice to be able to do that in FF without any kind of 3rd party helpers.

I’d rather use a PWA that uses my firefox install than use an electron app which bundles chromium. And PWAs are standard, and can work on mobile too…
To be fair, apps that use electron are rubbish too :)
They are, but PWAs are slightly less
